I look at you and would do it all again
the joy, the pain, sorrow, the gain
to see you struggle and strive
be defeated and succeed
to beat the odds and fight the genes.
You are my one and only,
my chunky monkey,
who laughs and cries,
fights and climbs,
over and under
any stairs, steps or flight,
to reach your ultimate best
and show everyone
that you are not afraid to be you.
As I look at you tonight,
sleeping soundly with Elmo,
I can't help but cry and think
how I am the luckiest mom in the world
to have been blessed with a son like you
who is perfect in every way,
including genetics and autistic ways.
Moms be thankful for what you have,
God knows what he's doing today,
for one day we will all be flawless,
but to moms we are perfect today!
Enjoy the bad days and good,
for I know that all it takes
is one touch from Kyle in a gentle way
to make the worst day go away.
Open your hearts and minds
and appreciate this most precious gift to us all,
that of mothers and motherhood.

I think this says it all from a wonderful mom's heart!!! I miss you guys. I'm going to print this off. Do you mind if I display it when I can go back to work?

Of course you can display this...didn't think it was that good and it didn't rhyme but you can do whatever you want to. You will remain in our thoughts and prayers! I was called from your office again today and evidently they didn't take me telling them no twice to Kyle seeing another doctor for his 6 year check up that was suppose to be today with you and did not cancel his appointment. I told them I would consider another doctor if he got sick but would wait on your return for a check up, especially since he had just seen his pediatric cardiologist and developmental specialist (now 2 wks ago) and all is fine. Cardio. thought he was going to get a EKG on the spur of the moment and the nurse said she was going to tell him I laughed in her face and I told her no that I laughed twice in your face and that they should have told me they wanted that prior to my arrival and us waiting 1.5 hours to see him with no one else in the waiting room. Anyway, if there is ANYTHING we can do let me know but I know the best thing is prayer...DONE! Hope Connor and your daughter were good to you on Mother's Day...Kyle brought me gifts then had to open the card from my mom tore the envelope and ran with the cash!
